(1) The maximum scan rate is 3.3 kHz when the Z-Axis Height for the ROI is set to the largest value and 15 kHz when the Z-Axis Height is set to the smallest value.

(2) Please refer to the diagrams in Field of View.

(3) This is the range when the sensor head is mounted on a metal frame and the heat from the sensor head is well dissipated.

(4) Test implemented based on IEC 60529. 6: dust-tight; 7: protected against the effects of temporary immersion in water.
